    Nice, so are you going to take it out and play this weekend?

    Both yalls trucks look great. What kind of fuel mileage decrease did you see by running the taller tires? What about the Speedo change?

    Thanks. It looks like the OP is also running the 255/85/16 BGF KM2s. I only run them when I go off road & are a bit large for a 4Banger with the hills & mountains where I live for use on a daily driver (280 hilly miles/week). I love them when I go off roading. Don't know about MPGs, I've heard they help with hwy but suck in the city. Speedo with stock tires reads 2 mph faster than actual and with the 255s it reads 4 mph less than actual at 70 mph according to my GPS.

    it gets good mpg on the highway and a loss of 2mpg in city. i drive daily 75 miles and love the tires. it takes a little longer to stop so no more riding peoples ass lol. but my ultragague is still reading 19 mpg avg. and i was at 19.2. with the tires tucked under the wheel wells no mud or water all over the windows when mudding.

    The best reasonably priced 3" lift
    OME 885s & Dakars.
    885s with spacers will get you around 3" on a DCSB like it did for the OP.
    885s without spacers will get you around 2 1/2" on a DCLB like it did for OZ T, a DCSB will probably get somewhere in between.
    OME gives a great ride both on road and off.

    Awesome, thank you for the help. I'm not a fan of spacers so the 2 1/2 should work. Where do you think has has the best deals on these kits?

    That's why I went with the 885s and not the 884s (same spring rate but 885s are a little longer).
    Most get them from ToyTec. I got mine used (8 months) from a TW member selling his Taco. Don't forget your TW discount. And no Diff drop.
